Casey 1,680 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I've heard a lot of talk lately of upgraded cars spawning in different locations, higher value and sellable. Post the details here if you would, times of day, type of car, value etc. It'll be handy for those new to Los Santos and anyone in need of a bit cash.

lorenz25 19 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) This is for PS3: - The Green markings are where I've found the green gang cars. Either parked along that street or they'll come driving up it. - The Purple is where I've found the purple gang cars. Only place I've seen them is in that cul-de-sac where I've marked on the map. It's just a straight shot down the street from where the green cars can be found - The Yellow is where I've found the yellow gang cars. I've seen it either in those 2 parking lots I've marked or once in awhile parked along the street near the parking lot in the middle of that block. All of the gang cars I think sell between $8000 and $13000. I think the peyote pays out the highest but they all are pretty decent. It's easy to see the gang cars because they always have tinted windows and I think usually have a lowered suspension. Sometimes when you steal them the entire gang will start attacking you, I usually just try to drive away because there are so many. Edit: Sorry I wasn't paying close enough attention when I posted this and missed that it was in the PS4 section. I'm not sure if the same info applies to PS4 and I couldn't find a way to delete my post. Sorry!

ronin 596 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) Gold/Chrome Dubsta spawns here, as far as I know only during daytime. The part of the map that was graphically described as the gentleman's sausage with the saggy b's New vehicles like the Dukes, Stallion and some DLC Cars spawn here, near the bridge into the port. Sometimes there will be modded vehicles spawning near an LSC, but that is rather rare. Modded Sandking and Rat Truck (or Loader ...) sometimes spawn near LSC in Paleto Bay and the modded Sandking also spawns near the Ammunation in Paleto Bay in the morning, around 11 am. Note that you need another Sandking to make them spawn and better have a garage in Paleto to store a couple of them if needed. After 8pm, gang vehicles will spawn in downtown LS (area near Franklin's house, Grove street etc). Mostly Peyote, Tornado and Manana (not sure about that last one). All the above sell for reasonable amounts at LSC (12-25k). There is a glitch/bug/oversight by R* that allows to further increase the value of any car. Go into LSC, hover over the suspension options a couple of times, no need to buy anything. Then go to Horns and select Sad Trombone. It should be free of charge. Then sell the vehicle with an increased profit. E.g a Baller selling for 9k will now sell for 22k.

Pr0fane 495 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Just a bit of additional info about the 2 that I know of. Per lorenz's post: yes. The upgraded gang vehicles do still spawn in PS4. If you keep an upgraded gang Peyote (GTA$12,995) in your garage and use this for the drive-by, they are a lot more likely to spawn. Personally; I have noticed that the best time-range is between 2300 and 0300 GTA time. That's 11:00 at night until 3:00 in the morning. The green one is easiest, you won't be gang-attacked when you hijack it. The purple one; if you wait until it starts to drive away then hijack it, you *may* get away without a shot being fired. The yellow is almost always an awesome fight..that you lose. However, if it is raining, you can hijack any of the three without a fight. Per ronin's post. The gold/chrome Dubsta. The time range I've noticed that works best is between 0600 and 1500 GTA time. That's 6:00 in the morning till 3:00 in the afternoon. Again, if you're driving a previously 'acquired' gold or chrome Dubsta, they are much more likely to spawn. They sell for GTA$23,250 each, regardless of gold or chrome finish. And it seems to work better with multiple people driving in the area. 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/4817-spawn-locations-upgraded-cars/#findComment-66974 Share on other sites More sharing options...
skip_rat 447 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) Can't see it mentioned so I'll post it; there are upgraded Sentinel XS spawning by the Tequila La La on Eclipse Boulevard. There is a blue and a yellow one, both with visual mods and suspension lowered. They spawn after 11pm and are on the move, often by the liquor hole store opposite the club. Sale price 'as is' is about $17k Edited January 20, 2015 by skip_rat 4 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/4817-spawn-locations-upgraded-cars/#findComment-67004 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_era 22 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 All this time I've been turning in random cars for around 3k.

ronin 596 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 All this time I've been turning in random cars for around 3k. If only I had known! The above mentioned cars are all quite rare. Some luck and patience is required to get hold of them. I find it more useful to sell the regularly spawning cars. Don't bother with the low value cars. Common cars that sell for the most money: - both Ballers: 9 k each - Felon and Felon GT: 9k/9.5k - both Oracles: 8k - there is also a Sentinel that sells for 9.5k but forgot which one ... As a general rule of thumb, check the buying price of a regular car on the car website (San Andreas something..., not the exclusive one) and divide that by 10. That should give you an idea of the selling price at LSC. 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/4817-spawn-locations-upgraded-cars/#findComment-67163 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrel 5,180 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Sentinel XS ronin, Skip Rat mentioned above where to find the special one. In the gang areas it's generally Peyote's that can be found but I've been managing to spawn Manana's and the other day spawned a custom Buccaneer. All of them in the Yellow gang area. I found a custom Ruiner outside the east LS customs. Only seen it there once though so not sure on time or days that it appears.

skip_rat 447 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 If anyone wants a really slow camper van lookalike there are some modified BF Surfers on the beach opposite Hookies bar (middle of the map, west coast). If you drive down the small road to the beach and head North (up) you should find a camp site and a surfer parked there. So far I've found a green one and a chrome and orange one. They are not that valuable (5-8K depending on the wheels) and are dreadfully slow, but if you want one they spawn between 5pm and 11pm. Anything else that spawns there isn't storeable. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/4817-spawn-locations-upgraded-cars/#findComment-67394 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey 1,680 Posted January 22, 2015 Author Share Posted January 22, 2015 (edited) Monday between 8am & 1pm - Invite Only Session Found this near the police station in town, thinking it was an upgraded car (which it wasn't) I drove to LSC When I got there, this upgraded Ruiner was sitting outside ($9200) Took the Ruiner back to my garage, went back to LSC with the Sentinel and this upgraded Dominator was outside LSC ($19,500) Edited January 22, 2015 by Casey 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/4817-spawn-locations-upgraded-cars/#findComment-67862 Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeraldPhoenix 134 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) I've noticed lately that the Gold/chrome dubsta now spawns in Downtown LS Customs. I drove the one I had over there to sell and I saw one parked by itself. It happened to me twice. This was around morning/afternoon. I wonder if they are changing the locations or adding new ones.

Ronny 1,061 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) For what I can see the spawns at Los Santos Customs are really random, Me, Matty, Tom and Skip has spawned 6 different cars at the one with the airport. You can see 3 of them in the video above. There's also just an hour "spawn window" each online day at this spot.

Squirrel 5,180 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Little warning for people collecting these cars, especially the stationary parked ones. I noticed a post on GTAF talking about the use of ignition bombs and bait cars. A gold dubsta parked outside LSC is a very tempting prospect and it was a tactic I used in free roam yesterday to great effect. I did warn the few crew that were in with me at the time to avoid my little trap, then had a little pre-DD fun with a Gauntlet. Ask Haste and Slaine about that. Anyway my advice is to use passive mode when collecting the stationary cars. I have a feeling that using them as bait cars will become more common in the free roam sessions. There is an award available for using car bombs so there is a legitimate reason for blowing people up.

Ronny 1,061 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 never seen that as a problem If I get blown up that way I would probably laugh my arse off I almost always go for car hunting in crew only sessions, so shouldn't really be a problem. And from what I can see the cars at LSC seems to only spawn between 08:00-09:00, so if you find one outside in another time of day you probably should smell something fishy Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/4817-spawn-locations-upgraded-cars/#findComment-69787 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrel 5,180 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I've noticed them in late afternoons as well. Picked my Gauntlet up around 6:00pm at the main LSC. I will try and behave and not encourage the crew to borrow my car. I have a feeling no one will trust parked cars when I'm around.

ErnYoung 548 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I was able to locate and collect a Sand Rail Dune Buggy. This is the Dune Buggy without the bodywork. The spawn location is shown in the above image and the map location is shown below. You will need to have a standard Dune Buggy for it to spawn. If the standard Dune Buggy spawns here as is does 2/3 times, drive out of the zone and back in until the Sand Rail version spawns.
